PT doesn't change priority of a certain service by explicit rule

Good questions.. I'm trying to remember if PT shows a balloon when changing priority according to explicit rule.. I'm not sure it does.-mouser (October 13, 2012, 01:03 PM)

Yes, it does with all other rules I configured.

As far as why it works during manual rule, it may be that if PT is doing it initially, its happening before the program does it's initial initialization process which forces it's priority.-mouser (October 13, 2012, 01:03 PM)

I'm not shure whether I understand this correctly. If I don't start PT automatically but manually after the user log in is complete and the tool is running for a while already, it is the same behavior. I can change the priority manually as often as I want, but creating a rule doesn't show any result - but only with this one process!

I'm adding to my todo list to check into this and also log these events so that they are easier to diagnose.

Sure you've got that explicit rule exactly right? If all others work, then why wouldn't this rule work, some silly typo maybe? (I have those all the time :-[)

I deleted the rule and created it anew:
1. Look in Process Explorer for the correct path of the process
2. Drag and drop the application from Windows Explorer to the rules window of PT
3. Set the priority rule.
result: nothing.

I deleted the rule again and did this:
1. go to the Processes tab of PT
2. set the Explicit Rule for the process
result: nothing.
3. set the Priority for the process
instant reaction

SQUIDMAN:
Hi mouser, I have gotten a balloon message on my pc when using process tamer.

1. Although I have set higher portieres to be forced, is the program suppose to change these automatically on start up? It doesn't seem to work if this is the case also running windows 64 bit.

2. How do I tell the program not to automatically reduce a process? It slows down my video maker program. 

3. Not sure if I am configuring settings right, I go to the process list click on exe that I raised and to the next column to force priority. Is that all I have to do to change these automatically on start up? :-[

Run the program in question. Then open up the configuration, find the program on the list of running processes, and in the far right hand column labeled "Explicit Rule" choose "Ignore".

OR if you don't want to run the program, just go to the main Configuration tab, right clck in the bottom grid and say Add Rule, then add the executable filename and set it to "Ignore".
